Edinburgh lies 60 miles to the south, and Aberdeen 67 miles to the north. The most recent estimate of Dundee’s population is 143,390 (General Register Office for Scotland (GROS) 2009 Mid-year Population Estimate). Dundee has a sizeable student population, and is home to the University of Dundee, the University of Abertay Dundee and Dundee College. The Dundee City Council area covers 6,300 hectares (24 square miles) and is, geographically, the smallest local authority area in Scotland. It is bordered by Perth and Kinross Council to the west and Angus Council to the north and east. The former Tayside Regional Council area previously covered all three councils, and Dundee continues to serve as the regional centre for this area and north-east Fife, with an estimated catchment population of some 400,000 people. Dundee is Scotland's sunniest city, with an average of over 1,500 hours of sunshine per year from 1971 to 2000. [Met Office] Easy access is available in Dundee to the main road and rail networks. The A90 Edinburgh to Aberdeen Road passes through the City, and the Tay Road Bridge connects to north-east Fife. Regular First ScotRail services between Glasgow and Aberdeen, and Edinburgh and Aberdeen stop at Dundee, as do GNER services between London Kings Cross and Aberdeen. Virgin also provides daily cross- country train services between Dundee and Carlisle, via Edinburgh. Scottish City Link and Stagecoach operate bus services between Dundee and Perth, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Fife and other destinations. Dundee Airport, located in the heart of Scotland, is the most convenient fly-in destination for some 1,000 square miles of Central Scotland. Situated only two miles from Dundee City Centre, and less than 10 minutes by taxi from mainline rail and bus stations, it affords quick and easy access to Fife via the nearby Tay Road Bridge, and lies within five minutes of the main Scottish Trunk Road network. There are scheduled flights between Dundee and London City Airport, Belfast, Birmingham and Jersey (summer 2009). Dundee is the only Scottish city to be featured in the Here and Now UK edition of the board game Monopoly. The place was won by an online poll by the game's manufacturer Parker. The square features a picture of Claypotts Castle and has a price tag of £2.2m 1 About Dundee 2010 - Introduction Dundee is twinned with: • Wurzburg (Germany) • Nablus (Palestine) • Orleans (France) • Zadar (Croatia) • Alexandria (Virginia, USA) Dundee's Sister City is: • Dubai (United Arab Emirates) 2 About Dundee 2010 - Dundee at a Glance 2 Dundee at a Glance Population 143,390 GROS 2009 mid-year population estimates % of population over 60 24% GROS 2009 mid-year population estimates Administrative area1 6,300 hectares Ordnance Survey Land Line (24 sq miles) Population density2 2,276 people per sq km GROS 2009 mid-year population estimates Electorate 106,325 Dundee City Council Electoral Roll 2009 Residential properties 74,387 Dundee City Council Corporate Address Gazetteer (9 August 2010) Number of households 69,228 GROS 2009 mid-year household estimates Number of households with no car 30,454 2001 Census Unemployment 5.0% Claimant count rate (2008 monthly average, NOMIS) Median gross weekly earnings, full-time £466 Annual survey hours and earnings April 2009 Travel from Dundee To Travel time by train Distance by road Aberdeen 1 br 7 mins 66 miles Edinburgh 1 hr 5 mins 54 miles Glasgow 1 hr 16 mins 81 miles Perth 21 mins 23 miles Stirling 52 mins 56 miles Source: National Rail Source: RAC 1 As measured to Mean Low Water Springs. 2 GROS use a smaller land area figure for Dundee (ca 5,983 ha) than that quoted above. 3 About Dundee 2010 - Population 3 Population Dundee City Council has an estimated population of 143,390 as of the 30th June 2009 (GROS Mid Year Estimate).

Chart 1: Dundee City's historic and projected population, 1801 to 2033 (source: GROS) Chart 2 focuses on the change in population since 1991.

Chart 2: Dundee City's population, 1991 to 2009 (Source: GROS) By 2033 the population of Dundee is projected to be 135,229. This is a decrease of 5.7% compared to the estimated population in 2009.

Table 2 shows that this increase is due primarily to a rise in the net immigration to the City. There was also a positive total for natural change, i.e. more births than deaths. Chart 4: Migration, in, out and net, Dundee City annual average, 2007 to 2009 (Source: GROS) 6 About Dundee 2010 - Population Migration in and out of Dundee is summarised in Chart 4. On average in 2007- 2009 there was a net inflow of 339 people into Dundee City per year, meaning that more people entered Dundee than left. The 16 to 29 year old age group accounted for the largest group of in-migrants into Dundee City.

    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

    Dundee City Archives: Subject Index This subject index provides a brief overview of the collections held at Dundee City Archives. The index is sorted by topic, and in some cases sub-topics. The page index on the next page gives a brief overview of the subjects included. The document only lists the collections that have been deposited at Dundee City Archives. Therefore it does not list records that are part of the Dundee City Council Archive or any of its predecessors, including: School Records Licensing Records Burial Records Minutes Planning Records Reports Poorhouse Records Other council Records If you are interested in records that would have been created by the council or one of its predecessors, please get in contact with us to find out what we hold. This list is update regularly, but new accessions may not be included. For up to date information please contact us. In most cases the description that appears in the list is a general description of the collection. It does not list individual items in the collections. We may hold further related items in collections that have not been catalogued. For further information please contact us. Please note that some records may be closed due to restrictions such as data protection. Other records may not be accessible as they are too fragile or damaged. Please contact us for further information or check access restrictions. How do I use this index? The page index on the next page gives a list of subjects covered.
